I hear the music and I’m floating on air.

Today's Tids Issue 3,203
Opening stuff:
 
Is the world of romance a world for fools? Is claiming a prize by a pack of horny dogs the new tale of the chase? Has deceit replaced love; the fling, a lasting warmth in a pounding heart -- that beautiful feeling that overwhelms my senses.?  Are there still eyes that create symphonies which send you over rainbows, or simply, coldly  beckoning quick flips in a nightclub restroom. Are marriages like willow trees with roots shallow and tenuous, easily toppled by the merest breeze of discontent. Has a scorecard replaced a poem lyrically promising eternal love?  Or, am I just a romantic old fool who is out of touch. If I am, I think I’d much prefer staying in my world of puffy clouds and rainbows and glistening autumn oceans. And the beauty of man’s true and giving love for a woman.
 
When I listed the best all time ballets a few weeks ago I forgot one of my favorites, Romeo et Juliet, by Hector Berlioz --one of history’s most brilliant, liquor infused, drug hazed mad men. Frankly, I don’t really know if it is a good ballet, but the music is great.
 
I remember when advertising agency artists in the late 60’s, early 70’s thought it was important that his work looked like psychedelic master Peter Max? Peter Max today: http://petermax.com/

One of the great ongoing marketing ploys is convincing children never to be like or dress like or listen to music like, or, or, or…like their parents. Is is good for manufacturers and sellers, but n ot so hot for family relationships.
 
The North Smithfield RI High Hchool girls State Champ tennis team have the best looking uniforms, followed by the Providence Classical HS football team.
 
The Middle East is driven by many factors, some of which are downright a bit odd. For instance one group that is fiercely behind the strong and independent Israel forever is the US Evangelical churches. So much so, that many of their churches where they are strongest freely exhibit flags of Israel. There reasons: First the salvation of the Jews and bringing them back to one original place is considered a miracle from God as predicted by Moses and Johovah. Second, they believe that Israel must own its own nation so Jesus can return in the end. So, it isn’t all oil.
 
Speaking of marketing, I believe it is feminist groups that have been pushing baseball caps for boys and men, first the strap on the forehead look and now the flat brim – both of which make men look mentally deficient.
 
I have never understood the popularity of the Progressive Insurance spokes woman. But, she’s making a bundle with royalties for life, so what do I know.
 
Ebola will cease to be an American problem within 4 hours after the November election.
